Writing Sexuality

You are writing a romance and want to include “sex scenes.” How graphic do you want the descriptions without them becoming smutty? What if you only want to include imagery that happens above the neck? What is the industry standard that is expected in the romance genre? Are there tricks to let the reader imagine what you only hint at?

Our long-time member, New York Times best-selling author Kathryn Shay, will answer these questions during her presentation on Saturday, August 23. We are fortunate to have an author with over 100 published romances in our midst who shares her expertise so freely.

Come visit our group for the business meeting that starts at 9:00, or join us at 10:00 and participate in the presentation. We invite visitors to attend one meeting for free before becoming a member. Our dues are only $20.00 a year. For that small amount, you get seven presentations, three peer critique sessions, and a December holiday party. Our location and meeting times are prominently displayed on the first page of this website.
